Drunk partygoer hospitalized after police raid bash at Lehigh frat

Lehigh University police last week raided a fraternity house party and called EMS to take a "highly intoxicated" partygoer to the hospital, court records show.

Two fraternity brothers are now charged with recklessly endangering another person for allegedly failing to seek medical attention for the partygoer.

The raid, which occurred shortly before midnight Thursday at the Delta Chi house, happened just days before the university confirmed that Delta Chi is suspended from conducting all activities.

A university spokeswoman on Monday refused to disclose the reason for the suspension, citing the "need to protect student privacy and confidentiality."

But the court records filed by Lehigh University police Cpl. David Kokinda describe officers arriving Thursday night to a chaotic scene at the frat house, 86 Upper Sayre Park Road on Lehigh's campus in Bethlehem.

"Upon entering the building, officers observed over 100 partygoers inside," Kokinda wrote. "Officers also observed beer, wine and malt liquor that was available for anyone to consume. There (were) no safeguards in place or people checking identifications of partygoers to confirm they were 21 years of age."

Inside the house, officers found the highly intoxicated partygoer with a cut on his forehead; he was vomiting and unresponsive, according to court records.

They called EMS, and he was taken to St. Luke's University Hospital in Fountain Hill for treatment.

Kokinda wrote in court records that officers conducted interviews after the raid with Thomas Hyndman, 20, of Churchville, Pa., and Alexander Zulauf, 21, of Vienna, Va.

Both admitted to knowing the condition of the highly intoxicated partygoer, identified as 19-year-old Garrett Rosenboom, and not seeking medical treatment for him, court records say.
